Original subtitles

It was written in the stars

and in the dust of the dead, that from

the seed of Gant the annihilator would come

the greatest of all chieftain's, Thor the conqueror,

the favorite of the God Taesha.

This is the place of the sacred stone of Taesha,

where are born the sons of chiefs, and where

shall be brought forth Thor son of Gant the annihilator.

I, Etna, with the fire of the spirit of the dead,

purify the symbol of life.

- Taesha!

Thus did I save the infant Thor from Gnut

the faithful archer and this was a source

of great annoyance for Anuta, the ancient

witch who collects the eyes of the dead.

Many moons times 10 have passed.

The earth has changed.

The giants of the long-nose no longer prowl their jungle.

Often and often the sun makes thicken the land

and the earth becomes the cosmic mother.

And here is Thor, he who is destined

to be the greatest chief of all.

I have raised him as if he were my own son.

I taught Thor combat and to follow the path of right.

And to be cunning.

The only thing I have not taught him is my magic.

It is all I have left to keep his respect.

At least a little.

By now he is too big and strong for me.

Oh.

Etna is old.

Aye, it is fish heads, take no offense.

I must face it, it is my time to depart.

Time to die.

They will eat their flesh, and drink their warm blood.

- What's that?

- A female.

- Female?

What's a female?

- No!

Come.

No, Thor, she's not something to eat.

Make her lie down and play with her.

What else is she good for?

The female is stupid.

Have your way with her.

Take her, she's yours.

Don't treat the woman so gently.

The female has to obey her master.

It is proven.

She must fulfill you and bear the fruit

that is called children.

This mare thinks you're perfect for her.

Just like Eve holding the apple.

And now, Thor, you've known a woman

and killed a man.

Your reign is about to start, and mine

has almost come full circle.

Tomorrow is the holy day of Taesha, our God.

You've got to go, Thor.

- No, Thor stay right here.

Thor has food and now Thor has female.

- Taesha!

Taesha has commanded you.

He speaks to you through me.

You have to go, Thor, and unearth the blade

of your father and the seed of gold.

The fruit that springs from the earth again

after the snow.

I shall watch over you, in the name of Taesha,

the god to whom you owe your life.

- Thor goes, Taesha.

Mother death is also life.

I'm too old and tired to go with you, Thor.

But my spirit will be in the wind.

Taesha!

The warriors virgins?

They are here.

This is their territory.

- Thor should battle the queen?

If you can get by her hand maidens.

Yes, you must fight the queen.

It is mine, female.

In a world of a man, you will live.

Thor, you'll remember that.

All this land belongs to its conqueror.

To Thor, your king.

By the sacred order of Taesha and you will

bear the fruit called children.

You, wait here.

May the trees bear fruit,

may the fat animals return.

Oh, protector of the seed of gold, accept our sacrifice.

May the flame and the blood purify the earth

and render it fertile.

- Taesha, my savior as an infant,

I failed in my sacred mission.

Forgive me, Taesha.

What are you waiting for?

Aren't you going to kill me?

- The golden seed of life.

It's the magic of the earth.

No.

Don't touch it.

Only the spirits can.

- No, the seed belongs to men, to humans.

Taesha orders it.

Come.

Make fire.

Stop it.

- Thus invincible Thor succumbs to Ina,

to the pleasures of connubial bliss.

And while he's making love to Ina,

the moon shines on the seed and

Jupiter lies possessing Taesha.

The lovers resume their journey.

They must now traverse the territory of the great buffalo.

Thor comes in peace.

Now the long journey is almost over.

Thor and the faithful Ina are about to enter

the land of the unknown.

In the sands, next to the great water, the lord

Taesha has hidden the destiny of the young Thor.

I told Thor what it was but he did not understand.

Or perhaps he did not believe it.

Ina is expecting the fruit of their love.

She is a female, strong and intelligent.

A son in her belly.

A woman's magic.

But there is coming the fateful archer Gnut,

the enemy of Thor

- It is Thor, sayeth the spirits of the earth,

the sky, the water, and those that creep in

the underworld.

- Taesha has spoken to us.

I want you to go to Thor.

Tell him to come to our village in peace.

- Your wish is my command, father.

You come.

Yes?

Bring.

- We welcome and pay homage to you, and I,

as village elder, declare that from this time on,

you are the chief of chiefs.

- Thor leads none but the bravest of warriors.

Yours is a people of feminine men.

- I am an old man and have seen many things in my life,

this is one of the greatest moments.

It takes a shaman to know when it comes.

- I sense the joy in seeing you, all over our village.

You come to us as a savior.

There has been no rain for moons now.

The animals are bags of bones.

Hungry tribes will come to raid our village

and take what we have.

A little, I am willing to share.

Only a little, not all.

- No, we will give them nothing.

- Onid's heart is humble, and desires to see men at peace.

But Thor is descended from the God of thunder.

Kuasa is the first virgin since the rising of the

new moon to reach the dawn of womanhood.

She must warm the bed of the chief.

Aye, so it is and has been since time began.

- So it is and shall be until time ends.

Thor.

Thor!

Hear me, spirits of the earth, sky, water, and below.

The seed of gold of Taesha shall render nourishment

for all men until the end of time.

And thus Thor the invincible shall plant the seed

and fertilize the earth so that all who follow

are his children.

- I milked the goat, look how much she gave.

Thor.

What is it, hunter?

Misfortune is upon us again.

What are you talking about?

- Many warriors coming, a great army,

descending from the mountains.

- How near are they?

- Less than five circles of the sun.

- Return and when they're in striking distance, advise me.

- This was not destined to be the great conflict

that would alter the course of history.

Thor's warriors were not warriors at all.

The women inside the huts would have been better.

For these men, were men of peace.

Hopeless at fighting a war.

Instead, Gnut, Thor's mortal enemy,

and the one who slew his father,

had seasoned warriors under his command.

And they were made even more ferocious

by their hunger, because the earth was dying

and offered no fruit.

Gnut knew of a land where food could be found

and shelter from the cold that was to come

and women, and Thor, the chosen one.

But when a man lacks the strength of a lion,

he must then utilize the cunning of a serpent.

Women are the cunning sex and Ina was their queen.

She had a plan and Thor listened to her.

It turned out to be perfect in its simple logic.

The serpent.

- Thor!

Thor!

- No, he's my meat!

Over there.

Gnut doesn't want to kill Thor.

What Gnut has in mind is a lot worse.

- You, tie her up.

- Anuta the witch who collects the eyes

of dead men shall fail to get Thor's.

Her collection will be less than perfect.

- Taesha.

- No.

No!

- Spirits that rule the night, spirits of evil,

the father I killed, may the son forever go

wondering in blindness.

- Taesha!

- Taesha!

Yes.

I can see.

I can see again.

Gnut.

Look.

- Females.

They're supposed to be warriors.

- Taesha divined and gave him back his sight.

- But he can't kill us as long as we all stick together.

He'll have to pick us off one by one.

And outside the village.

So we'll stay put right here, men.

Plenty of pretty little slaves here.

We'll let them bring us our water and our lamb.

- Thor was to be chief of chiefs.

Instead Gnut has taken my place.

And you wander around in the land of the dead,

where is my father's sword?

Where is the power of Taesha?

I cannot fight alone against so many.

- Thor, this creature was sent by Taesha.

Centuries from now, he'll be called a horse.

A horse stands for your force.

He can move faster than the wind.

But a horse also likes to run free.

He's not going to volunteer to sit under you.

Let me go.

- Fruit for the master.

No!

- Anuta, listen to your son.

I ask you to help me.

Help me to kill Thor, as I killed Gant.

I ask you for my sake and the God walk

in the nether regions, let us expand our forces

and let victory be for the powers of darkness

until man ends.

- Good horse, good.

Good.

Good.

Good horse.

Come.

Let's try again.

Be good, be good.

Good horse.

Good.

Go on.

Run!

Run like the wind.

Good horse.

Run, horse!

Taesha.

Taesha!

Gnut, Gnut, I beg, I saw Thor.

He was riding a strange beast.

It was as big as a hut and going faster than the wind.

It was like magic.

- Quiet!

- Ah!

- I knew he would return.

- Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

It's your time, you better get inside.

Come quick, hurry.

Please, have mercy, spare us.

Stand firm, cowards.

Come back here.

Come back!

Here, use this.

- No!

- Thor was the leader of his effort,

but it was not a world in peace.

Since then, whoever desires the fruit

of the seed of gold, need only reach

for his plow, but no one has been

successful in cultivating the seed of peace.
